In 2006, my daughter bet I couldn't eat a different chocolate each day for a year. I enjoyed that year so much that, after 11 years, I'm still eating a different chocolate each day. And, after more than 4,126+ chocolates, there are still many more to try. Thank you to all who continue to be part of this global adventure.

Egg madness (Day #10 of Chocolate and Egg Appreciation Theme Week) continued today with Dark Chocolate Raspberry Eggs from Lake Champlain Chocolates (Burlington, VT).
Molded chocolates tend to be a little thicker and waxier than their truffle counterparts. And if molded chocolates are filled, then the "walls" of the chocolate often need to be thicker and more durable to survive shipping and handling. (No one likes to buy broken eggs.) The only down side to this fact is that despite high-quality ingredients, it's tough to create molded, filled chocolates that reach the same delicate, tasty heights as their truffle counterparts. That said, the dark chocolate, raspberry flavored filling in these eggs was quite nice and natural tasting.
